Default Fascinator crownpt

This flower is 4 1/2 inches from tip to tip. The dark maroon petals and maroon tuffs flap in the breeze, rather fascinating one to watch. Only one flower visible.
Gotta love the bulbos!

Interesting, this is my fifth bulbo to bloom, not an odor yet.

lucky you ..and beautiful flowers too

funny how a sweet smell is considered fragrance and a sour one is odoriferous

I wouldn't consider FEET fragrant myself
